Sports By Messi, breaks, ronaldo
A picture of Lionel Messi posing with Copa
America trophy has made Instagram history.
Messi’s photo broke Cristiano Ronaldo’s
Instagram world record as he raked up 20
MILLION likes.
Ronaldo previously held the record for the
most-liked sports photo in the social media
app’s history.
The Juventus forward, 36, has more than
19.8 million likes for his post paying homage
to the late Diego Maradona in November
2020.
But after Messi, 34, helped Argentina win the
Copa America by beating Brazil 1-0 in the
final, his post-match snap became record-
breaking.
He captioned the post: “What a beautiful
madness! This is unbelievable! Thank you,
God! We are the champions.”
Messi, who won his first international trophy,
is currently holidaying in Miami with his wife
as he looks to finally sign a new Barcelona
contract.
